An Old Manuscript

So I just started reading some of my old manuscripts today, which is never easy for me to do. The first one made me cringe and I immediately stopped reading. The second one I started revising, because I totally saw the issues with it from page 1, but also some potential there. The third...the third...

I COMPLETELY FELL IN LOVE WITH.

This has never happened to me before! This is the novel I wrote for NaNo last year and I haven't touched it since then. It's a mess, sure, but I LOVE THE MAIN CHARACTER SO MUCH.

EEK.

Me thinks I shall give this one another go.

By the way - HI!

  1. Awesome!!! :) I just recently realized that my newest WIP is really an epic-ly different rewrite of my first MS. I mean, setting and plot is different (except for some major key points) but with the same characters/relationships. It's awesome. :)

    So glad you're giving one of your older ms a shot. I'm still scared to look at mine yet...

  3. Well hello there :) That's awesome that you found a gem in your shelved pile! Isn't it great when you get some space from your work, then come back and look at it and actually like what you see?
